Behold, The A.V. Club podcast returns Friday with a new name and new format

Those of you who follow us on Twitter or saw our post on Facebook know this, but we're debuting our new audio podcast, Reasonable Discussions, this Friday, July 1. It replaces A.V. Talk—the audio version, anyway—which has been dormant for a few months now.

Reasonable Discussions will be considerably different from its predecessor. We'll have a regular host (me), a few different segments every week, and it'll generally be better recorded and more organized. We'll also offer time codes every week so you know where the segments begin, not that you'd ever want to skip any part of it.

While the podcast makes its official debut Friday, we recorded a pilot a couple weeks back that you can check out in the meantime. It's available on our Reasonable Discussions Facebook page, facebook.com/reasonablediscussions, so take a listen and let us know what you think.
